Holding Space for #IBPOC #Opera #Artists @amplifi

Holding Space for #IBPOC #Opera #Artists
@amplifiedopera , in partnership with Tapestry Opera, is inviting all IBPOC-identifying (Indigenous, Black, Person of Colour) opera artists in Canada to join them for Holding Space, a place for artists to share their experiences in an open forum, and gather information to help us shape further action. The sessions will NOT be recorded. In the interest of creating a space that is safe for discussion, arts administrators and company representatives (including those from Tapestry Opera) will not be present.
The goals of these gatherings are to hold space for dialogue, networking, relationship-building, and create support for IBPOC artists in the Canadian Opera Industry.
Who is invited?
IBPOC-identifying opera artists in Canada (ex. Singers, Directors, Conductors, Stage Managers, Composers, Librettists, Repetiteurs).
IBPOC-identifying opera artists in Canada who also identify as the leadership of an indie-level opera company/collective.
Who should step back?
Non-IBPOC individuals and allies. We are grateful for the support of White allies and are looking forward to inviting everyone into the conversation at a future date. However, we feel it is important to start by creating space for artists of colour to speak openly about their experiences.
Tuesday, June 30, 4:00 PM - 6:00 PM EDT
Sunday, July 5, 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM EDT
Wednesday, July 8, 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM EDT
Zoom link provided to participants upon free registration.
